Jolly Harbour, Antigua and Barbuda

Jolly Harbour has a fish with your name on it, so let Blackfin Sportfishing & Tours Antigua help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Stephon can tell you all about them.

You’re likely to fish for Great Barracuda, Bonito, Bonefish, Snappers, Groupers, and more, depending on the time of year. On these trips, you can expect to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Your adventure begins aboard a 34’ Luhrs sportfishing vessel with a capacity for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, and everything you need for a productive day on the water. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Capt. Stephon has rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

You might need to get a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks for you on board.

Now, come aboard with Blackfin Sportfishing & Tours Antigua and get hooked!

Great Catching Trip!
Deep sea fishing on February 15, 20252 adults
My husband and I booked Stephon for a four hour fishing trip. We had an amazing time fishing. We caught a mahi-mahi, a small tuna, and three barracuda. We probably also caught another five barracuda that didn't make it into the boat. Stephon was a top-notch Captain, and knew how to get the job done. Kai was an excellent first mate and drove the boat all day while Stephon was constantly checking the lines and rebaiting when needed. If we are ever in this area again and looking to go fishing, I would not hesitate to book with Stephon again. We brought a mahi fillet back to our resort, Coco Bay, and the chef cooked it up for us - absolutely delicious!

Great Trip
Deep sea fishing on June 10, 20254 adults
Captain Paul and 1st mate Josh worked their butts off. 6 lines in the water at all times. Unfortunately we were in some really rough seas for our trip. Still managed to bring in 2 mahi and a Cuda. Crew were friendly and made great conversation. Boat was great one of the larger ones that I found that we could book. Plenty of amenities like bathroom and fishing room. Also this is one of the only boats I found that allow you to keep your catch as we like to bring our meat home to the states with us.

4 Hour Trip - Night Reef Fishing on February 23, 20252 adults
Went on an am and night trip with Captain Stephon. Unfortunately, the fish had other plans. Caught a Spanish mackerel but that was it. It was definitely not due to a lack of trying! Fish were there and he put us on them, but they were full, I suppose. Everyone was kind and friendly. If you take an am trip, go for lunch at the local shop they know of nearby. It is walking distance from the Sea Dream restaurant, where we met the vessel, and very tasty for lunch!
